Surgery~ma for Reequeen requested on Tuesday, as she goes under the knife.
If the Apocalypse Comes, Beep Me
Birth, death, illness, new job, vacation...if it's happening to you and you want us to know about it, post it here. These threads are intended for announcements only. Want to offer sympathy or congratulations, or talk about anything? Take it to Natter. Any natter here will be deleted.
We are officially homeowners now. The escrow closed late last week.
Welcome to mortgage, huh?
Just wanted to thank everybody for all the exam~ma for my qualifying exam last week. I finally got the official result, and it's a Ph. D. Pass with Distinction.
This is the first time in a long time (possibly ever) that I've been apocalyptic about the possibility of good things, and I'm a bit nervous.
My perfect job has been posted. I have applied. My application has been received.
Job~ma would be so very much appreciated.
Ms. Allyson rocks like a rockin' thing, she does.
She's managed to get me an incredibly short-notice signing event in Los Angeles next weekend:
Saturday, 5 February, at 4:00 p.m.
The Mystery Bookstore
1036-C Broxton Avenue
Los Angeles, California 90024
I would dearly love to see a whole passle (passel?) of LAistas at this one - it should only go an hour, so no one's bottom will suffer unduly.
Thanks again, Allyson!
I'm about to send in my application for the Math for America Newton Fellowship, which could well be the most important thing to happen to me in my life, if I get it. I think I'm qualified, but am very nervous, so any application~ma or calming~ma would be greatly appreciated.
I'll be dark from tomorrow morning through sometime on Monday. I'm going out to visit the folks for my birthday and lay a little bit of groundwork for the upcoming move.
If anyone in San Francisco is heading over to Berkeley for Victor and Thessaly's thing tonight, could you email me? Ripper (the car) has got an intermittent left headlight - if anyone is driving from here, and has room, I'll happily pay tolls/gas/whatever.
I leave tomorrow morning at seven am to start going back to the States. Any travelma would be appreciated.
